SIEBRECHT & SON, NEW ROCHELLE, N. Y. 
Nepenthes, or Pitcher Plants. 
We Devote one Entire House to these Plants. 
A good selection of Pitcher Plants adds wonderful interest and varioty to the contents of a greenhouse. They are so odd 
and striking that people who care little for other flowers are at once attracted by them, and the attraction deepens into fascina- 
tion. The long leaves are thick, glossy, and at their tips are modified into curious pitchers that hold water and drown insects, 
which are supposed to furnish nutrition to the plants, thus giving them a reputation for being " caruiverous." The pitchers are 
of various shapes and sizes, most of them brightly blotched and veined with red and yellow. Our collection is unequaled. 
NEPENTHES SIEBRECHTIANA. One of the grandest new hybrids yet introduced. A free and vigorous grower, producing 
its great pitchers freely. It resembles N. Ame.tiaiia more than any other variety, though its pitchers are of lighter color, and the
